It's just unfortunate situation. Best way to save your coins is to use hardware wallet like last ledger.

I have never been a victim Tracing your funds is not really difficult since all transaction are recorded in the blockchain though it will take some of your time and effort, also there are group of people or organizations who are very good at it. There are some cases where criminals was caught when they convert their crypto to fiat through an exchange platform since most of the exchange is KYC compliant.
Well, it doesn't work always because there are numerous ways hackers can get rid of the funds either by selling them in escrow group, or meet buyer in person. It's now the fate of the person that bought from them. It's even easier if they use Mixer service or swap them in Wallets like Exodus to another coin completely.

It happened in Jun 6th
I guess I download a virus altcoin wallet and the hacker found my private key in my desktop
There have been many people I have met complaining about the loss of crypto assets because someone hacked it and this is happening to you. There is no way to return your assets, it's just that it's very important to anticipate unwanted things happening again. My advice is do not save the private key on a computer that is always connected to the internet, save it on a harddisk, flashdisk or a device that has never been connected to the internet. if you want to more easily and securely store your assets, store them in a hardware wallet, just simply prepare around $ 70 to buy them. as long as I use the hardware wallet does not have any problems.

This is so Painful I can imagine, but the truth right now is that there is really nothing anyone can do. The hacker can't be stopped because he has your private key, the best you can do now is to move on ,create a new one and act like the old wallet never existed. This time be careful of phishing sites, also keep your private key safe.

Staying in the shade, this is the safer way for those hackers to hide their identities while they are stealing other's people funds. It's even easier if they use Mixer service or swap them in Wallets like Exodus to another coin completely.
Walking under the sunlight in the middle of the day, if the hacker do this (I don't think so), they are not this dumb, I mean even if they swap them in wallets, it is still possible to track that address through blockchain.

You shouldn't store your private key in your PC without any security. It's like you kept your most valuable belongings in your home but you forgot to close the door. Private key should be stored somewhere with encrypted/password protected file. If somehow we lost it, we'll lose it all. So, we should be careful.
Note: Sorry for your loss.

I think you should move your high-value and eth tokens to a new wallet. In my opinion that's all you can do, and be more careful in storing / using your private key.

This is one reason why every exchange requires its users to verify KYC. In addition to avoiding money laundering also to prevent the sale of crypto assets that was hacked. Although this method is not fully effective, but at least can reduce the hacker's space.

Unfortunately! Which wallet did you download? Note the next time do not download any suspicious wallet and please scan for viruses before using. Now there are a lot of sophisticated tricks to get into your account. Be more careful

There is no proof as you said and even if there is a proof, there's nobody or regulatory body you can report to for a redress. Remember cryptocurrency has no regulatory body.

So sorry about this. Always ensure the links or websites you visit ain't phishing to avoid getting your wallets or any other vital information compromised.

Be careful on what you download their are lots of them are a phishing site that can easily open your desktop and one of them is a virus to put it the files you downloaded. Just try to look at the right side of the website sometimes if have sign of lock those are safe site and have a words also secure. I just found out also that have same site of MEW, Becareful on this other MEW those are a phising site their is no lock sign in right side of the link.

Sorry for that but be more careful next time cause there are so many ways hackers get access to victims wallets like clicking on phishing sites, poorly stored private key etc. Ensure you store your private key in a safe place. It should be encrypted. I hope you didn't lose much funds from the hack.

This is a risk that must be accepted by cryptocurency users because hackers will continue to work to be able to take the assets that we have in their way. so we must be careful in carrying out an activity regarding cryptocurency to be able to maintain our assets properly. I hope this incident can be an experience for us in the future not to be repeated.

Just a few minutes ago, I warned that people should be cautious of the kind of crypto wallets they use. Now, you've been scammed. Firstly, I'm sorry about your loss. Secondly, why didn't you make thorough investigation before downloading the wallet?

Transactions on the blockchain are non reverse able, there's nothing you can do about it. Move on learning to protect your funds from future hacks such as this. Keep your keys Safe and secure from anyone's reach.

after seeing this incident, I don't think you will get your token back, because the fraudster has sent all your assets to the fraudster's wallet. maybe if you realize it or sooner than them, you still have a chance to move your assets to your new wallet.
